October 04, 2016 11:00 AM Eastern Daylight Time

SINGAPORE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Materion’s Advanced Materials (NYSE: MTRN) business segment announced
today a new service that will halve the existing scheduled delivery time
for microelectronic packaging products ordered in smaller quantities.
Faster receipt will enable customers to accelerate R&D projects and
decrease their time to market.

Through Materion’s COVERexpress service, delivery of Combo-LidsTM
and solder preforms can be expedited without compromising product
quality. Rather, the time savings is achieved through employing a
proprietary process that can swiftly create complex designs or
micro-sized products without the lengthier time required to fabricate
hard tools. This method reduces manufacturing time, resulting in
shortened delivery time. For those customers engaged in product
feasibility studies and rapid prototyping, faster delivery of materials
will allow work to begin sooner.

“For our customers with critical time restraints or requiring smaller
production volumes, the ability to halve delivery time provides a huge
advantage,” commented Donald Klimkowicz, President, Materion Advanced
Materials. “COVERexpress is just one more way that Materion anticipates
and meets our customers’ packaging needs.”

New Product Development

In addition to the new COVERexpress service, Materion research
facilities offer new product development support encompassing a variety
of competencies in R&D. Its technical experts assist with prototypes for
bench-to-full scale production of custom products. Application engineers
are also available for trouble shooting or to accelerate product
development.

Lids for Every Application

For microelectronic packaging needs, Materion is the industry’s cover
lid innovator. Its broad product line is tooled for over 8,000 preform
shapes with the capability to customize and manufacture Combo-Lid
designs to unique requirements. Combo-Lids are available with either
metal or ceramic lids, and with the option of non-magnetic construction.
